Mommy Makeover: Why Is a Mommy Makeover Needed?

Along with the beauty that motherhood brings, pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding can cause some permanent changes and deformations in a mother's body. Sagging and loss of volume in the breasts; sagging, stretch marks, and skin laxity in the abdominal area; and anatomical changes in the genital area may occur. These physical changes may sometimes affect a person's self-confidence and reduce quality of daily life. The aim of mommy makeover procedures is to correct these deformations.

What Procedures Are Performed?

Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

This is a surgical operation performed to repair sagging abdominal skin and separated abdominal muscles after pregnancy. Excess skin and fat in the abdominal region are removed, and the abdominal muscles are tightened. In this way, a flat and firm abdominal appearance is achieved.

Breast Aesthetics

After breastfeeding, sagging, volume loss, or the need for breast augmentation are common and can be addressed with different interventions.

For example:

• Breast Lift (Mastopexy): Lifting and firming of sagging breasts.
• Breast Augmentation (Breast Implant): Restoring volume to the breasts with silicone implants.
• Breast Reduction: Reducing and reshaping large, sagging breasts.

Liposuction

This is a surgical procedure to remove stubborn fat accumulated in areas like the abdomen, waist, hips, and thighs. In this way, body contours become more sculpted and proportionate.

Vaginal Aesthetics

Due to childbirth, there can be relaxation or deformation in the vaginal tissues. Procedures such as vaginal tightening (vaginoplasty) or labia aesthetics (labiaplasty) can tighten the area and provide aesthetic improvement.
